Overview of this book

Serverless computing is a way to run your code without having to provision or manage servers. Amazon Web Services provides serverless services that you can use to build and deploy cloud-native applications. Starting with the basics of AWS Lambda, this book takes you through combining Lambda with other services from AWS, such as Amazon API Gateway, Amazon DynamoDB, and Amazon Step Functions. You’ll learn how to write, run, and test Lambda functions using examples in Node.js, Java, Python, and C# before you move on to developing and deploying serverless APIs efficiently using the Serverless Framework. In the concluding chapters, you’ll discover tips and best practices for leveraging Serverless Framework to increase your development productivity. By the end of this book, you’ll have become well-versed in building, securing, and running serverless applications using Amazon API Gateway and AWS Lambda without having to manage any servers.

Data analytics and transformation

Okay, so now, we have some extracted raw weather data that we transformed to our liking and loaded into another location in S3. This is where we get to start using the data and really dive into the structure, perform queries, and draw insights. For this, we are going to use Amazon Athena, a serverless query service that we can use to access our transformed data directly in S3, without loading it into another data store, such as a relational database.

Let's kick off by learning how to use Athena to query data in S3.

Querying data in S3 with Athena

At this point, we know we need something else to read the data that was collected, transformed, and cataloged by Glue. You can see tables and...
